Hi Guys

We are about to start the road towards land ownership and living on the land. I currently have use of 6 acres of land but it is steeply sloped, North faced and it's use is limited. So we are about to purchase 8 acres. I am hoping this puts us over the 5 hectares area.

We haven't put a business plan together yet, agreed terms on the purchase of land, sorted out finance, etc. It is just a concept but I wondered whether it would have value if I posted the steps as we go and talked about issues we run into etc. I am a complete novice. I have never bought land or built my own house but I am inspired by David's book. I have had a dream about building since I was 4 and this is possibly a chance. Of course I might fall down on the first hurdle.

Let the journey commence! Let me know whether it would help to document the steps.

Thanks for reading

Rich

Hi Rich, welcome to the forum.

I'd suggest starting a new diary in the 'members diaries' forum.
